West Seattle Community Garage Sale Day is not only a fun day of person-to-person recycling, it’s also a chance for local nonprofits to benefit from donations, either from sellers with leftovers they don’t want to keep, or shoppers who generously decide to buy items the nonprofits need, for the express purpose of donating them.

Here are the organizations/efforts hoping to synergize with WSCGSD this time around:

NORTHWEST CENTER – The Big Blue Truck dropoff spot on 44th SW in The Junction will have special hours – here’s the Friday afternoon update:

The Big Blue Truck™ will be accepting donations after the sale
Key Bank Drive Thru, 4718 44th Ave SW
Drop off will be open late on Saturday until 6:30 pm.
Please help them out by bagging and boxing items.

You may also check out their acceptable list or schedule a residential pickup for this coming week at bigbluetruck.org.

STOP N SHOP AT THE SENIOR CENTER OF WEST SEATTLE: “We’ll be taking small household items and clothing.” Open 10 am-4 pm on Saturday – drop off in the carport on the east side of the building (4217 SW Oregon).

STUFF THE TRUCK AT HOLY ROSARY: They’re collecting unwanted items again this year, 42nd/Genesee, to help fund programs to help neighbors in need.

White Center Heights Elementary PTA is partnering with Value Village for our first-ever Donation Drive Fundraiser Wed. May 30 – Mon. June 18, with a special early drop-off date on Sat. May 12 during West Seattle Community Garage Sale Day — so sellers can get rid of what’s left and buyers can make room for new treasures.

Every pound of your unwanted stuff turns into funds for uniforms, supplies and community activities benefiting White Center Heights students, teachers and families.

Regular Donation Drop-Off
Wed. May 30 – Mon. June 18, Noon-10PM at Full Tilt Ice Cream (9629 16th Ave SW, Seattle, WA 98106)
